This was our first and last time eating here. My boyfriend and I both ordered the bulgogi beef which was $22 per person. However, what we got was a plate full of onions cooked to varying degrees with a small amount of beef and mushrooms. The bulgogi was not marinated well if at all. It lacked in taste and was dry. Also, we weren’t aware that it came with a side of white rice, as it wasn’t pictured with the bulgogi nor did our server inform us, so we ordered extra sides of white rice which were not only unnecessary but the rice was also dry. So, if you want to pay $22 for a plate of onions with a little bit of beef and mushrooms sprinkled in and some dry rice come here. If you want real bulgogi go to a KPOT or anywhere else really. We were beyond disappointed with the price and the quality of the food that was served to us. Food would get 0 stars if I could. Service is definitely a 1 star since they more than happily took the extra rice orders for that extra money and didn’t say a word. Did we look like we were carb loading for a marathon? The answer is no we weren’t. Atmosphere is not that great either. The chairs are small and super uncomfortable. 10/10 would NOT recommend. Please take your money elsewhere for bulgogi.

Oh boy, where to even start? The food gets one star because they won't let me rate it any lower. We came solely for the beef bulgogi and were sorely dissapointed. I'm not being hyperbolic when I say the dish was 85% onion and 15% beef/mushrooms. If that wasn't bad enough the beef was dry and not marinated at all and the onions were almost completely raw, it was a rare find if you found one that had been sautéed. The mushrooms were fine though, probably because it's nearly impossible to overcook or undercook a mushroom, seriously it's almost scientifically impossible. Just overall a very bland and dissapointing meal. It shouldn't be an unrealistic expectation for our bulgogi BEEF have more than 2 or 3 slices of beef.The service also gets one star because they failed to tell us that a side of rice came with the meal when he saw us both order a side of white rice to go with the bulgogi. That should have been an indicator for our server to mention it came included but happily took the extra money we'd be spending in error instead. He also gets one star for handing us plates of almost entirely onion and having the audacity to call it bulgogi beef.The atmosphere actually gets 3 stars believe it or not. It really did feel like we were in north Korea with the way they were rationing their beef, you'd think there was a nation wide famin. Not to mention the chairs were hard and incredibly uncomfortable, probably to add to the "forced labor camp" north korean ambiance I assume they were going for.TL:DR I paid $60 for what was basically a plate of mostly raw onions. Needless to say I won't be coming here again, mostly because I don't want to press my luck with trying to escape the DMZ a second time.

The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is because of the price. I would definitely order more often if I wasn’t as expensive as it is. The food is really good though! The chicken wings are so crispy and the sauce is one of a kind.

Very small !! It was over $15, but the portion of salad was really small, a lunch box, and all the food put together was only half a box. I will never come here again, not an authentic Korean restaurant at all. If you need to imitate Korean food, please imitate it, it is shameful, Korean salad, only a few slices of green vegetables, almost no green vegetables, it is obvious that the pepper is not Korean chili sauce at all, it is Chinese style hot sauce, this is obviously bad,Please don't believe the 4.3 rating, the food in this restaurant is worth 1.0 at most

The Spicy Drumsticks are always the bomb! Crunchy, sweet, and spicy. If you love fried chicken that is juicy and packed with flavor, then this is the place. It's always a treat! ?

Would not know how the food actually is because when we showed up at 8:30 on Saturday night we were told that the dining room was closed.l and we would have to take the food to go. Their posted hours are until 9:30. I won’t be back.
